[QUOTE="john250, post: 691075, member: 4406"] Ed, if you choose, follow the link to this story: [url=http://www.grist.org/article/2009-08-07-debunking-meat-climate-change-myth/]http://www.grist.org/article/2009-08-07 ... ange-myth/[/url] Grist is an environmental website (I bit my tongue and didn't say wacko-environmentalist) and frequently has posts attacking agriculture as we know it. The link is to a post by a fellow described as a respected grass-fed producer. Read the comments below his post and notice how few people were convinced that grass fed beef can save the planet. Most of the comments follow the general trend "that's great, but you will be healthier if you go vegan and we won't have those cows farting greenhouse gas". We can all hang together, or we will surely all hang separately. If I meet someone who is specifically looking for a good grass-fed calf, I'll gladly send them your direction. But if I meet someone who is looking for a good steak, I'll tell them I personally prefer a bit of corn in the finishing ration and offer them a sample. I can't promise them eternal life. I can provide ingredients for an enjoyable, healthy meal. [/QUOTE]
